Ye Qinglan twitched the corners of her lips and said yes.
Mrs. Xue pretended not to understand the sarcastic curve of Ye Qinglan's lips, and said coldly: "It's getting late, you go back to the house and rest first. If you have anything to say, we'll talk tomorrow!" With that, he walked away.
Ye Qinglan looked at Xue's stiff back, and felt extremely happy.
She and Mr. Xue had clashed several times, and she had used sharp words to make Mr. Xue speechless. However, it was not as pleasant as this time! Seeing that Mr. Xue was clearly angry but still trying to force herself.
The look of patience is really pleasing to the heart!
Mr. Xue was in a bad mood, but Ye Qinglan was in a happy mood.
After returning to the house, Ye Qinglan took a bath under the care of the maids. After taking a bath, she felt refreshed and relaxed. Although her body was obviously very tired, her spirit was surprisingly exciting.
The maids were a little more excited than usual today and gathered around.
"Miss, Sister Ruixue has told us that you and Mr. Gu are about to get engaged, right?" Guiyuan was the first to ask, with an excited smile on her round little face.
Yinger and Hongluan also opened their eyes curiously.
When the matter reached this point, there was no need to hide it from the maids around him. Ye Qinglan smiled and nodded.
The maids were all in an uproar, even more excited than Ye Qinglan himself: "That's great, the young lady is really going to marry Mr. Gu."
"Yes, I was always worried that interacting with Mr. Gu in this way would cause rumors. I didn't expect that Mr. Gu would quietly ask the Queen for marriage..."
Several maids were talking to each other, talking non-stop. Even Ruixue and Ruomei couldn't help but join in the conversation. The originally taboo topic now has no scruples.
Ruixue even sighed with a smile: "To be honest, I have been sweating for the young lady. I was always worried that there would be no results in the future, and the young lady would suffer a big loss. Now it is finally good, and the young lady can finally see the moonlight after the clouds clear.
"
Ruomei smiled and said: "I have never been worried. The young master is so interested in the young lady. It will definitely be revealed that the matchmaker is marrying the beautiful lady."
Ruomei's true identity cannot be hidden from anyone with a discerning eye. After getting along day and night for so long, Ruixue and others have also secretly noticed that she is different. Her skills are far more flexible than ordinary maids. She also often disappears mysteriously. How could there be someone like this around Gu Xiyu?
The maid? She was clearly the bodyguard sent by Gu Xinian under the guise of Gu Xiyu to protect the young lady!
Ruixue smiled and joked: "Sister Ruomei, when she marries to the Duke of Dingguo in the future, will you continue to stay with her?"
Ruomei did not hesitate and responded with a smile: "As long as the lady does not drive me away, I am willing to stay by my side." These words were extremely sincere.
Ye Qinglan felt moved in her heart. She smiled and promised: "As long as you are willing to follow me, I will never treat you badly in the future."
The master and servant looked at each other and smiled, and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.
After chatting for a while, Ye Qinglan finally felt sleepy. She slept very soundly that night.
Ms.
I applied a thick layer of powder on Xue, which finally somewhat covered up the haggardness that kept her awake all night.
Mrs. Xue had no appetite, so she ate a few bites of breakfast hastily and then put down her chopsticks. Ye Qingfu and Ye Qinglan soon came over to say hello. When Mrs. Xue saw Ye Qinglan, she felt very angry.
If it were normal times, she would have found some excuse to slap her. But now... the words of finding trouble rolled around her mouth, and she swallowed them back. Instead, she said bluntly: "You can do whatever you want.
I'll go to Changhe Hall to say hello."
Ye Qinglan and Ye Qingfu responded in unison.
There was no conversation all the way. When we arrived at the entrance of Changhe Hall, we happened to meet Mrs. Zheng and Cui Wan. They exchanged a few words with each other and entered Changhe Hall together.
Mrs. Li was talking to Mr. Jiang in a low voice. When she heard the footsteps, she immediately stopped and greeted everyone with a smile as if nothing had happened. Ms. Zheng saw it in her eyes, but remained calm and smiled as she invited Mr. Jiang.
Ann.
Jiang smiled and said: "Okay, no need to be so polite, let's sit down and talk." As he said that, he glanced at Ye Qinglan intentionally or unintentionally.
Ye Qinglan stood obediently behind Mr. Xue, looking at her nose and heart without even raising her eyelids.
Jiang coughed and asked about yesterday's wedding banquet at Duke Dingguo's Mansion, seemingly unintentionally: "...Ms.
Will ask.
Mrs.
There is an intention to get married, and my daughter-in-law is just trying to discuss the matter with her mother-in-law!"
Jiang was also very good at pretending to be stupid. He smiled kindly and said, "I'm a little confused when you say that. The only unmarried person in Duke Dingguo's house is Gu Xinian. Could it be that Mrs. Zheng has fallen in love with us?"
Is there a girl in the house?"
Xue's smile was a little stiff: "Yes, Mrs. Zheng fell in love with Sister Lan." In fact, it was clearly Ye Qinglan and Gu Xinian who had secretly agreed to each other. The fact that Mrs. Zheng fell in love with her was simply a joke to deceive herself and others.
However, some truths must never be told. The Changyuan Bo Mansion and the Dingguo Mansion are both prestigious and noble families. If such things were to spread, it would be a loss of face. I can only give such a subtle hint!
Mrs. Jiang also knew it well and did not expose such an obvious lie. Instead, she smiled kindly and said: "This is a good thing. Sister Lan is not young anymore, and she has reached the age of marriage. If it is decided,
For such a good marriage, you, the mother, must have contributed a lot to it."
...She didn't want this "credit" at all! Mr. Xue smiled dryly and said nothing.
Jiang's attitude is clear, and he is absolutely in favor of this marriage. Although the Changyuan Mansion is inclined to the third prince's party, it would be even better if it could be related to the prince's party. No matter whether it is the third prince's party in the future
Whether the prince or the prince succeeds to the throne, the Changyuan House can rely on the strong in-law relationship to continue to establish a stable and long-term foothold in the capital and the court.
To take a step back, even if the prince falls in the future and the Dingguo Palace is implicated, the Changyuan Palace will not suffer any loss. At most, it will lose an insignificant concubine. Therefore, no matter how you think about it, it is an extremely cost-effective marriage.
…
Thinking of this, Jiang's attitude towards Ye Qinglan suddenly became gentle and friendly: "Sister Lan, come to grandma quickly. Grandma has something to ask you."
... Ye Qinglan calmly suppressed the goosebumps that appeared on her body, walked out from Xue's side with a smile, and gave Jiang a blessing.
Jiang looked at Ye Qinglan with a smile and praised: "Look at Sister Lan, she is so beautiful and smart, and she knows how to advance and retreat. No wonder she can please the Queen."
Ye Qinglan cooperated and pretended to be shy and blushed, but she was secretly amused. Gu Xi Nian's prediction was indeed a bit good. As long as Duke Dingguo made his attitude clear, her status in Changyuan's residence would immediately rise.
Take Mrs. Jiang for example. I didn’t even bother to look at her before, but now she smiles so kindly and kindly!
Mrs. Li also smiled and echoed: "Sister Lan is so lovable, not only the Queen, but also the Crown Princess appreciates her very much!" After that, she smiled and said to Mr. Xue: "I have such a good daughter.
, you are really lucky."
It took a lot of effort for Mrs.
"What you said is wrong." Mrs. Li said with a smile: "The Queen has personally summoned Sister Lan, and Mrs. Zheng has leaked the news again. This is already a definite happy event, and it will never happen again.
Something has changed. I have to say congratulations first. When preparing a dowry for Sister Lan in the future, don’t forget to mention that I, the second aunt, will have to add some dowry to Sister Lan no matter what."
Mrs. Zheng also smiled and spoke: "If Sister Lan marries Xinian, it will indeed be a good thing. Such good news should be sent to my uncle as soon as possible."
Zheng's thoughts are actually similar to Jiang's. Although she is closer to Zheng Guogong, Ding Guogong is also an in-law. If Ye Qinglan marries, the connection between the two houses will be closer. For Changyuan Bo's house,
This is definitely a good thing.
The elders were talking lively, and Ye Qinglan basically had no chance to interrupt. She just had to keep her head down and pretend to be shy.
Although Mrs. Xue had been mentally prepared, seeing everyone sided with Ye Qinglan overwhelmingly, the feeling of frustration and discomfort could not be described in words...
Ms. Jiang talked for a long time, and when she saw Ms. Xue still looking like she was dying, she felt unhappy. She looked at her with a little impatient look and said lightly: "In a few days, let the guys from Xiuzhuang and Yinlou come over.
, buy some new clothes and jewelry for Sister Lan so that she won’t look shabby when she’s a guest.”
Mrs. Xue swallowed her anger and responded.
Mrs. Jiang looked at Ye Qinglan again and said kindly: "Sister Lan, do you have enough people around you? If not, just ask your aunt to pick two smart people for you."
Ye Qinglan smiled quickly and said: "Thank you grandma for your concern. The maids around me are enough, so there is no need to trouble my eldest aunt."
"You kid, you are really obedient and sensible." Facts have proved that when Mrs. Jiang is so kind, she is almost too kind: "That's fine, I'll just follow your wishes first. In short, no matter what I'm missing, just say it." (To be continued.)
